Soccer training – Goal shots - Sprint Shot

Soccer drill procedure

A defender attempts to disrupt the proceedings. Attackers should take advantage of speed, and try to go right up to the goal shot, where the defender will hardly have any chance at all.

Description

The players start at the same time, and a defender is introduced into the game. The red player sprints to the right or the left, past the black player. He receives the pass, and shoots at the goal from a sprinting position. The defending player attempts to block the goal shot.

Variations

- Shoot again if the ball hits the post
- Different goal shot techniques

Soccer coach tips

- Always train using both legs!
- Correct errors individually
- Use the momentum from the sprint when making the goal shot
- Keep running to make a second shot
